for rm350, i would rather go for ST56F although it has lower wattage than Huntkey's
seeing how their PSU exploded, i don't think i would ever trust that brand

Does E-View true power 300 watt, max power 600 watt able to support:

1.) Athlon X2 5000+
2.) Sapphire 4850
3.) 2 X 1 gig Ram 800mhz
4.) Soundblaster X-fi Extreme Gamer Fitality
5.) 2 hard disks ( 1 is 160 gig, another is 80 gig)
6.) 1 dvd rom
7.) 1 dvd-rw rom

Which psu is suitable for me?

according to calculation, your system is estimated to consume 295W
so do you wanna risk it? my suggestion is, forget about using your E-View, get a reliable PSU, like Silverstone ST50F

Nope... Its not 80+ therefore not true power...

just want to add that if the PSU is not certifed 80+, it might still be true power
e.g. Silverstone ST400, ST50F, ST56F, FSP Blue Thunder II, and many others wink.gif
